Hebron-district villages in 1945 Village Statistics or in Palestinian Authority statistics of the
present day.’>”
The conclusion to be drawn from this examination of Rihiyya and Khirbat al-Asad is
that one must proceed with caution when quantitatively interpreting Ottoman data which
was not gathered in order to be a statistical resource. As stated in the Introduction to this
study, this is one reason | have chosen a socio-historical methodology for this study.
Table 2.1 on the following pages compares the population and village data provided
in the 1871 sa/name with the corresponding data provided in the 1876 emlak register.
Appendix Two of this study offers comparison between the number of residences in villages
as per the 1876 Emlak registration with the number of households (hanes) counted in the
villages during the district’s first comprehensive population registration in 1905. | argue that
the overall correlation over time between relative population indicators in these three types
of documents is an indication that the emlak registration is a reliable reflection of the size
and population of the villages in 1876.
